"I work with students who are smart, motivated, and stuck. They're often in high-pressure schools where the material moves quickly and expectations run high. These students know they need to learn, but they're not always sure how to approach what's being asked of them. My job is to bring clarity: to break down what's in front of them, figure out what actually matters, and help them build a plan they can execute with confidence.

I'm a recent NYU graduate and native French speaker with experience teaching one-on-one across age groups, from elementary school through high school. I tutor French at all levels, along with English, writing, history, science, and foundational math. I work with many AP students in humanities subjects and regularly help with essays, reading comprehension, and academic organization.

What sets my approach apart is that I don't give answers or shortcuts. I focus on how students think. That means learning how to break down complex material, spot patterns, and work through problems step by step. The goal is for them to guide themselves through their work rather than depend on someone else. Parents often reach out when their child is working hard but not getting the results they want. My aim is to give students the structure and confidence that makes learning feel logical, repeatable, and theirs." less...
